What are Hybrid Mesh Firewalls?
Hybrid Mesh Firewalls, such as Fortinet's FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), are designed to provide integrated and automated protection across various corporate sites, including branches, campuses, and data centers. They help secure the expanding attack surfaces created by the adoption of cloud environments, remote work, and IoT devices. By leveraging the Fortinet Security Fabric, these firewalls enable real-time threat intelligence sharing and policy application across the entire IT infrastructure.
How do FortiGate NGFWs enhance security?
FortiGate NGFWs enhance security by simplifying complexity and providing visibility into applications, users, and networks. They utilize purpose-built security processing units (SPUs) and threat intelligence from FortiGuard Labs to deliver effective protection against known and unknown attacks. Additionally, they support SSL/TLS inspection to detect malware in encrypted traffic and enable automated, policy-based responses to security events, ensuring a coordinated defense across the organization.
What are the benefits of using Fortinet's Security Fabric?
The Fortinet Security Fabric provides a unified approach to security management by interconnecting all FortiGate devices across the network. This integration allows for the automatic distribution of contextual security policies and threat intelligence, enhancing visibility and control. It simplifies operations through a single-pane-of-glass management console, enabling organizations to create and manage granular security policies effectively while reducing the complexity associated with multiple disconnected security tools.
